Troubleshooting
Shoe feels too tight or small
Consider trying a half or full size up, as these shoes can sometimes run snug. Ensure laces are loosened during try-on.
Dirt or scuff marks on nubuck material
Use a dedicated nubuck cleaning brush to gently lift dirt. For persistent marks, consult a specific nubuck cleaner and follow instructions carefully.
Laces are difficult to tie or stay tied
Ensure laces are threaded correctly through the eyelets. Consider double-knotting the laces or replacing them with a different type of lace if they are slippery.
Color transfer from crimson accents
This is rare but can occur if the crimson material is exposed to moisture and rubbed against lighter materials. Keep shoes dry and avoid prolonged contact with other fabrics when wet.
